Staining and final finish application | U-Line 2175WCOL2, 2115WCOL2

WARNING

To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of your unit, the wood trim MUST be removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours per coat) in accordance with the product manufacturer’s instructions prior to reinstallation. Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the warranty.

If staining the trim is desired, it must be done before the application of any type of final finish. Review the following staining/final finish and final finish-only guidelines when staining/ and or sealing the wood to ensure proper adhesion and durability of the finish.

NOTE: Glass in door is tinted. Stain may look darker when door is closed.

Staining and final finish application:

1.Remove all screws securing wood trim to interior components, and remove the trim from the cabinet interior.

NOTE: Your model will contain an electronic display panel in the lowest level trim piece. After removing the trim screws, and gently pulling the trim from its location, a wiring harness connector will become visible. Unplug the connector, and remove the trim from the interior.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT use oil-based stains on wood trim. Vapors from oil-based stains will permanently penetrate the liner and will not dissipate over time.

2.Apply Minwax® Water-Based Wood Stain to wood with a synthetic bristle brush or a foam applicator. Allow stain to penetrate approximately three minutes. Before the stain is dry, take a stain dampened rag and remove any excess stain remaining. Wipe in the direction of the grain with medium pressure to achieve the desired stain color.

3.After two hours, repeat step 2. This will even out the color of the wood.

4.Allow stain to dry for a minimum of three hours before applying the final finish.

5.If desired, sand the wood with very fine sandpaper to smooth the surface after the staining process.

6.Remove all dust from the wood, and apply one coat of Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish using a synthetic bristle brush to the wood. This finish should be applied in a thin coat following the direction of the grain.

Apply the finish to the back and sides of the wood first, and allow it to dry for two hours. Apply the finish to the front side of the wood next, and allow it to dry for two hours. Sand with very fine 220 grit sandpaper. Apply two addition coats of the finish in the same manner, but do not sand the trim after the final third coat is applied.

7.Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the trim to the cabinet interior components.

Final finish-only application:

1.Remove all screws securing wood trim to interior components, and remove the trim.

2.Lightly scruff sand the wood trim with 280 or finer grit sandpaper.

3.Remove sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth.

4.The factory-applied seal is compatible with virtually all finishes. A low odor, water clean up, quick-drying finish such as Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish is recommended (Minwax® Polycrylic® is an ultra fast- drying water-based finish). Apply a thin coat of a clear, protective finish, following the container label directions.

5.Lightly sand and reapply if desired.

6.Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the trim to the cabinet interior components.
